Description
The synthesis of continuous cobalt–adeninate MOF (bio-MOF-13 (I) and bio-MOF-14 (II)) membranes supported on porous alumina tubes is demonstrated. The membranes showed high CO₂ permeabilities and low to moderate CO₂ separation selectivities for CO₂/CH₄ gas mixtures. The observed CO₂/CH₄ selectivities are attributed to preferential CO₂ adsorption within the framework.
